Hi JK,

We've looked at Syntiant before.


Keyword Spotting: Making an On-Device Assistant a Reality

Article By : Peter AJ van der Made, BrainChip Category : Uncategorized 2020-04-16

Another option for keyword spotting is the Syntiant NDP101 chip.

While this device also operates at comparable low power (200 microwatts) it is a dedicated audio processor that integrates an audio front end, buffering and feature extraction together with the neural network. Syntiant expects to replace digital MACs with an in-memory analog circuit in the future to further reduce power.

The Akida chip has the added advantages of on-chip learning and versatility. It can also be reconfigured to perform sound or image classification, odor identification or to classify features extracted from data. Another advantage of local processing is that no images or data are exposed on the Internet, significantly reducing privacy risks


Syntiant previously used a Frankenstein (hybrid digital/analog) SNN:

US2019034790A1 Systems And Methods For Partial Digital Retraining

... but they have progressed to all digital:


WO2020028693A1 SENSOR-PROCESSING SYSTEMS INCLUDING NEUROMORPHIC PROCESSING MODULES AND METHODS THEREOF

View attachment 21228



BrainChip's US2017229117A1 LOW POWER NEUROMORPHIC VOICE ACTIVATION SYSTEM AND METHOD was cited against this Syntiant patent application.

And as we all know, Chris Stevens ( Our new VP of WW Sales ) has recently made the move from Syntiant to Brainchip.

Mr. Stevens was most recently Global Vice President of Sales for Syntiant Corporation, a leading edge AI semiconductor provider, where he built a world-wide sales team and drove revenue growth with tier-1 key accounts. He has also held executive sales positions at Centercode, Lantronix, Mindspeed Technologies, and Texas Instruments. An electrical engineer by training, Stevens is intimate with edge AI semiconductor technology, its ecosystem, and the requirements to accelerate adoption and sales.

I have tracked BrainChip’s progress closely, as I’ve been selling into the same edge AI market. I am thrilled to take this sales leadership role with confidence as AkidaTM is uniquely superior and positioned to be the de facto standard for edge AI semiconductor IP”, said Stevens. “With use-case, market, and customer targeting, I’m certain I will contribute to further ecosystem penetration and accelerated sales”.



And
RE: Duy-Loan Le
It's of interest that our most recent board director recently retired from Texas Instruments, so the two would be already well acquainted !

Mrs. Le has a remarkable professional history, both technologically and in executive management, having retired from Texas Instruments as a Senior Fellow after 35 years. While at TI, she led TI’s multi-billion-dollar memory and DSP product lines with joint venture partners in five countries and three continents.

Could we close in the green here? Always nice to end the week green rather than red. I'll take half a cent these days 😂

I haven't been keeping a close eye on things, but is this the first time there are more buyers than sellers since the 4C?

If you look at every setback as an opportunity, then nothing is too worrying.
Although I would love to see the SP rising, I did pick up another 70,000 Brainchip shares today at between 61 and 59 cents.
You just have to know what to do when opportunity knocks ... even if it knocks softly.
Of course I had to sacrifice some other shares to raise the funds, but it will be all worthwhile next year (I suspect).

I won't look back and say, "I could have bought more at that price and didn't." GLTAH

Very good Deena!

My accumulation has just begun again... Last time I purchased BRN was roughly 12,900 shares at 47 cents back in August 2021.

I'm happy to continue buying anything under 78 cents. Can't complain when the price is 20% below that.

I think the worlds greatest phenomena would be the individuals who watch the spike, buying during the spike, sell off during the tree shake and then never re-enter at 62 cents? Oh well, more of their shares for me :)

No happened at least one other time because someone else posted about here. I did not look to confirm. 😎

I just have one thing to say....... ASX u are bunch of lowlifes.
The Manipulation here is beyond breath taking ..... and is allowed.
The majority of trades the past few weeks are pure Bullshit.
I will be patient for as long as it takes GrassHopper ............ just upsets me to see so many dudded but much worse is they are allowed to be dudded.

Nasdaq full listing then quickly into the splits making our MC shoot past the likes of Atlassian in the blink of an eye. Hehir has got to show something by this time nxt year 2 years at the helm.
Disrupter stock of ours is going to Saturate every bit of every market in this World 🌍 over the nxt couple of years. All companies worldwide will have BRN ‘s IP if they want to keep on keeping on in a competitive leading way in their own fields/ Market. Hehir and Nasdaq November 2023……my rant. Vlad.

So, the price is still low.

Long term holders who bought cheaper contemplating buying more, those who are already in the red probably going to hold so as not to sell at a loss.

Interesting times!

Careful what you wish for.

We don't want to be pre-revenue before we list on the Nasdaq or we will receive a royal fuckening.

IMO, we need to be post-revenue, preferably profitable, with royalty revenue coming from multiple industries and product markets.

The Nasdaq IPO should come at a time where we have use for the funds, ie, pouring millions into capturing as much of the edge AI market as possible. This would come after akida has been validated and is in consumer products.

The balance of the funds would of course go towards funding R&D costs associated with our next-gen products.

If we're still sitting on our hands waiting for customers to validate akida before they put it into their products then we'll be sitting on a war chest of money we have no use for.

An early listing would be unnecessarily dilutive and the share price will be hammered further when we don't meet sales expectations. We want our ASX share price to be in the several dollars to limit dilution whilst also being able to list off the back of a company that is no longer perceived as 'speculative'.

This will allow the management team to IPO at a large market cap and obtain enough funds such that we never need to consider raising capital again.

I'd love to hear Ken Scarince's opinion on this.

You know posting stuff like this is just encouraging weak hands to bail out right?

Of course it knows. All part of the agenda. It has been called out for this many times previously. It doesn't care.
